Unless thunder and torrential rains prevail, I will be riding from the Stow plaza @ 5:45 (or 5:30 if no one else joins in). Standard WNSL Wawersik Protocol. (Hang with cat 3s as long as possible on hills, regroup at tops, paceline to next throat-punching.)

I'm interested. What color on the radar map indicates too much rain for even a rule #9 ride?

Dunno about colors, but light rain is OK, rain heavy enough to cause major vision problems at all times is not OK. Electrical activity of any kind is a show-stopper for me. I am only about 20 minutes from the start, so I can check radar and make a decision pretty late in the afternoon. I suspect most people need to decide earlier on whether to make the drive.

Where exactly is the "stow plaza" anyway?

Route 117 in Stow. We start from near the Papa Gino's in the plaza.

Looking good for launch. Mr. Busick, will you be joining in the fun? Or should I plan for a 5:30 start?
